Biography[]

Wall Street Crash of 1929[]

"I'm still living off the dividends from the Crash of '29. The Crash that Tom here had the vision to orchestrate."
Hugh Jones to Calvin Chadwick[src]

A rich and powerful member of the Council of Nine, Gloucester led a financial firm that had a hand in every dollar that flowed through Wall Street.[2] In 1929, Gloucester warned Hugh Jones that he would manipulate the stock market to fall in an unprecedented way so that Jones could be ready for the consequences. Through Gloucester's warning, Jones became incredibly rich, so much so, eighteen years later, Jones was still living luxuriously off the dividends and praising Gloucester for what he did.[1]

The End of Isodyne Energy[]

"We are in possession of what could be the greatest discovery of all time."
"You've failed to illustrate that to us, Calvin."
Calvin Chadwick and Thomas Gloucester[src]

Gloucester assisted in a coverup involving Isodyne Energy, hiding Jane Scott's body in his County Cold Storage Building.[3] He later went to the Arena Club where he and the other council members told Isodyne Energy owner Calvin Chadwick to move on from the Zero Matter incident and to focus on his senatorial campaign. Chadwick attempted to convince Gloucester and the other members that the project was still viable, but Gloucester was adamant that Chadwick should cease his endeavor. Gloucester watched as Chadwick, being forced to agree with the rest of the Council, extinguished the lit candle in front of him, as the other councilmen had done earlier.[1]
